'I do all the wee things that maybe other people wouldn’t do. I would always try to go the extra mile. I always want to do a good day’s work.”

“About a month ago, a fellow rang me around lunchtime. He told me about this award and I thought he was pulling my leg.

The job has not changed that much and that is the way I like it.
